Application of Fuzzy theory to project scheduling with critical path method by MH Oladeinde, DO Itsisor

“…Fuzzy forward pass was carried out to determine fuzzy activity earliest start, fuzzy event earliest time and fuzzy activity earliest finish times. In order to overcome the occurrence of negative fuzzy numbers which occurs in fuzzy backward pass using fuzzy subtraction, we apply a modified fuzzy backward pass technique which uses a recursive relation to obtain the fuzzy event latest; fuzzy activity latest start and fuzzy activity latest finish times. …”

Gatemonium: A Voltage-Tunable Fluxonium by William M. Strickland, Bassel Heiba Elfeky, Lukas Baker, Andrea Maiani, Jaewoo Lee, Ido Levy, Jacob Issokson, Andrei Vrajitoarea, Javad Shabani

“…Accounting for the nonsinusoidal current-phase relation of the single junction, we fit the measured spectra to extract charging and inductive energies. We conduct time-domain characterization of the plasmon modes and find that energy-relaxation times are limited by inductive loss, possibly in the thin aluminum film. …”

Continuité des racines d’après Rabinoff by Marie, Emeryck

“…The content of this paper is a generalization of a theorem by Joseph Rabinoff: if $\mathscr{P}$ is a finite family of pointed and rational polyhedra in $N_\mathbb{R}$ such that there exists a fan in $N_\mathbb{R}$ that contains all the recession cones of the polyhedra of $\mathscr{P}$, if $k$ is a complete non-archimedean field, if $S$ is a connected and regular $k$-analytic space (in the sense of Berkovich) and $Y$ is a closed $k$-analytic subset of $U_{\mathscr{P}} \times _k S$ which is relative complete intersection and contained in the relative interior of $U_{\mathscr{P}} \times _k S$ over $S$, then the quasifiniteness of $\pi : Y \rightarrow S$ implies its flatness and finiteness; moreover, all the finite fibers of $\pi $ have the same length. …”
